Listing of Local Reuse Stores

Looking to get rid of your unused stuff, or maybe pick up someone else’s? We hope that Urban Ore meets your needs. Even with a 30,000 ft² of indoor retail plus a 2-acre yard, we understand that we can’t be all things to all people (at least not all the time!)

If you don’t find what you need at our store, we hope you’ll find it in another Bay Area reuse store.

We’re very proud of the “co-opetition” in our area – other Bay Area businesses that make up a strong and growing reuse economy. Since our mission is to end the age of waste, businesses that would normally be thought of as competition become co-operators in a larger purpose. In addition to creating a viable marketplace for used goods, we think these enterprises add a little extra value.

Let us know of your favorite local reuse stores in the comments section below. We’ll update this list periodically.
